you can change the scram for a T2 if you want but DG is cheap, you could fit a disruptor but if you hunt solo ratters you really need a scram to stop them MJDing away

Who needs neuts to kill em slowly, when you can have blasters and kill em quickly? 550dps with overloaded guns. After all 9 charges in the XLASB you will end up with about 72k EHP. The proteus suggested above will do the cloaky blasters thing better (better tank, prob more dps) but this one is cheaper XD

2-3 Pilgrims available for the cost of one Stratios. An equal ISK worth of Pilgrims will own an equal ISK worth of Stratios. Per ISK spent, you get way more effectiveness with Pilgrim(s).

For a close range brawler, this should meet most folks' needs. Double webs and scram means no ones getting out alive. I originally was going to submit a kiting sentry ship with a 30km faction point. But frankly, the Ishtar does that a lot better. It was fast ~3100m/s and did about 684 dps out to 30km. But there were some concerns and situational issues. I think this fit would be a bit easier to handle and more reliable.

Overheated stats with all level 5s:

• 594 dps with Ogre IIs and Conflag (double-webs means lots of damage application)
• Burst tank of 525 dps omni.
• 24309 EHP omni
• Max overheated velocity of 829m/s (generally about the same speed as any other AB HAC)
• With everything running you get 3'55" of cap life.

Add implants and boosters to taste.

Tactics: approach target while cloaked and ram them to disrupt their alignment. While you're waiting for sensor recal, pop drones and heat up all the things. That should give you enough time to lock and scram your target.

If you're planning on ganking ratters, you'll know what they're tanked against, which means you'll know what they're not tanked against, which means if you use missiles you can shoot right into their resist hole(s) for maximum damage. In the worst case scenario (Guristas), they're going to be tanked for kinetic/therm, which means your Proteus will be doing miserable dps while missiles could be firing right into EM (for shield) or explosive (for hull) for nearly full damage. Plus, with missiles you don't have to worry about causing problems with your own transversal.

So, if you don't need probes:

111k EHP, 464dps.

If you want the jamming protection from the Dissolution Sequencer subsystem, drop an invuln for a DCII. Drops down to 103k EHP.

If you want probes, you need to sacrifice a big chunk of dps or EHP. Sacrificing DPS is easy, drop a launcher for a probe launcher. Sacrificing EHP is a bit harder:

70k EHP, 464 dps.

XLASB fits are doable but you pretty much have to drop a bunch of DPS to pull it off and you can only get up to ~130k EHP. Probably not worth it.

Only problem is that total velocity, rather than transversal, will effect your missiles, so you might be more limited on the -size- of targets you can engage rather than the -type- of target. And being a cloaky, you get to choose your targets carefully, so engaging someone specifically fit to tank your damage would be silly. Otherwise, you've got the flexibility to choose ammo type, I'll give ya that.

What a tough competition, except maybe the blaster pilgrim that made me go wtf and sit coffee out my nose.

Im going to have to give it up to crazy0146 his proteus beats out the dps and ehp of the other ships while maintaining probes and the equipment needed to hold a target. I would have liked to have seen a proper pilgrim submitted but alas it was not meant to be. 250m isk was sent. Thanks for playing guys, hope the thread keeps going as more people see it.

Hehe some people just can't handle it here outside the box =P Same dps as the winner, half the EHP but 1/3 the cost.

Grats to the winner though - I like the addition of the probe launcher.

Tks to OP for the competition o/

I don't have EFT at work, but whatever - poke if EFT-link is needed.

Reason: Cheap (~450m), 400dps selectable, decent tank, incredibly fast at warping/aligning, great for combat probing people that just logged out with agression timer.
